China Glaze Apocalypse of Colour

Good evening spooky friends! I am sitting here watching The Simpsons Tree House of Horrors episodes that we recorded over the weekend and I thought it fitting to scare up a post featuring an awesome Halloween collection! This is the China Glaze Limited Edition Apocalypse of Colour collection. It consists of 5 awesome shades and the re-release of the always popular glow in the dark Ghoulish Glow. I have to admit, I totally love all the names - they crack me up! This collection should be in your beauty supply store NOW. Make sure you rush on over to pickup your favorites so your nails will be the hottest ones at the Halloween party!

I Love Your Guts is a shimmery pink red undertone base and it's full of little matte black glitters. It dries to a metallic matte finish. I Love Your Guts is also very slightly textured. This is a totally fun polish, I love the unique color and finish! I Love Your Guts had a fabulous formula and applied nicely. I used 2 coats of I Love Your Guts and no topcoat.

Getting To Gnaw You is a gorgeous black and copper glitter in a black jelly base. I really love this one...it's so dark and full of depth. The formula and application of Getting To Gnaw You were both fantastic. I used 2 coats of Getting To Gnaw You and 1 layer of topcoat.

Don't Let The Dead Bite is a bubblegum pink crelly full of an assortment of light and dark pink metallic glitter shapes. This reminds me of guts and gore in a horror movie. It's kinda gross but cool at the same time. The formula and application of Don't Let The Dead Bite was pretty good for a crelly. It built up to almost complete coverage in 3 coats. I used 1 layer of topcoat.

But Of Corpse is a zesty, shimmery lime green full of tiny black glitters. Just like I Love Your Guts it dries to a metallic matte finish and has a slight texture. This color is very reminiscent of all kinds of monsters that lurk in horror movies! I used 2 coats of But Of Corpse and no topcoat.

Rest In Pieces is a holo gold, copper and black glitter topper. It's full of bars, hexs and micro glitters. I think it would look great over dark and light colors, but I chose to try it over an ivory/cream creme. Lots of glitter came out with each brush dip and it spread well on my nails. I used 2 coats of Rest In Pieces and finished with 1 layer of topcoat.

Ghoulish Glow is a glow in the dark topper. You can wear it over any shade and for nail art. I wanted to show you how well it glowed so I have 1 coat of Ghoulish Glow over a plain white creme. The green glow is pretty strong, this is only have about 45 seconds of exposure to light. If you're in need of a glow in the dark topper than Ghoulish Glow is a great choice!
